Message of Safety to the Body This guided meditation will help the body receive messages of safety and trust in life in a non-verbal and experiential manner.
This meditation is specially beneficial for people who are struggling with anxiety,
Social fear or any other kind of fear around life.
This is to be practiced when you are feeling neutral or peaceful.
Sit comfortably with your back supported.
Cover your legs with a blanket and make sure that you are warm and comfortable.
Notice that the surface that you are sitting on is holding you and you can relax.
The surface that you are sitting on is holding you and the floor is holding the surface and Mother Earth is holding both the floor and the surface and all of existence.
Realize this and allow yourself to relax and release any tensions around the area of the hip.
Allow your form to relax.
Release any and all contractions as you are held.
Place one of your hands at the center of the chest and notice the warmth of the hand on the chest.
You can place your hand down when it gets uncomfortable.
Take a deep breath in and out.
Let your awareness move to any object in the room.
Notice the object.
Notice the space around the object.
Notice the color and the shape.
Simply notice,
Do not label or judge.
Notice it like you're seeing it for the first time.
Now notice the space between you and the object.
Notice how still the object is.
Now move your awareness to another object in another direction.
Again notice color.
Notice space around the object.
Notice the space between you and the object.
Really notice the space.
Notice how still the object is.
Now look around and notice all the space in the room.
Notice all the different objects that are there in the room.
And how the space of the room holds every single object with equal love and care.
Look to your left and watch the space.
Look to your right and watch the space.
Look in front and watch the space.
Turn around and watch the space.
Look to the ceiling and watch the space.
Become aware of the silence also.
Now notice the sensation of the weight of the body.
Notice that your back is supported.
Looking all around,
Notice that you are indoors and you're completely safe.
The body is receiving this message of safety now in a non-verbal and experiential manner.
Take some time to massage the various parts of the body.
Start with the head,
The scalp,
The face.
Do the massage with love,
Care and tenderness.
Massage your shoulders,
Arms,
Chest,
Stomach and entire back,
Hips,
Thighs,
Knees,
Legs and feet.
Keep sending love,
Gratitude to the various parts of the body.
Now close your eyes and feel the sensation of the form from the head to the foot.
Relax completely.
Become aware of the breath.
With the in-breath,
Feel the sense I.
With the out-breath,
Feel the sense I.
With the out-breath,
Feel the sense am.
Breathe in,
I.
Breathe out,
Am.
Breathe in,
I.
Breathe out,
Am.
Your eyes are closed and you feel the form self.
Notice that you also experience space around the form self or a spacious presence around the form self.
Notice that your experience of the form self and the formless true self is one seamless experience and there is no division anywhere.
One experience.
The form and the formless self are one experience.
This is your direct experience when you do not refer to thoughts or knowledge.
Stay with your direct experience.
Feel the formless true self holding the form self.
Now open your eyes and see the various forms that appear including your body.
Be aware of the silence.
Know that the formless presence is here right now.
Whether your eyes are open or shut,
The divine true self is always here right now,
Always holding the form self.
It does not matter where you are.
You may be at home,
At the park,
At a friend's house or the mall.
The true self is always holding you.
In the truest sense,
You are always home.
You are always safe.
You are always held.
Close your eyes again and be aware of the formless true self holding the form self and embracing it with love.
Receive the love.
Receive the loving embrace of your true self.
Know that you are held.
You are always held.
All is well.
You can relax.
All is well.
Thank you.
Namaste.
